Overview:
This is basically a ROM I made when I was bored.
It is based off of Pepperm1nt's [ROM][GB 2.3.4]GingerBread Phone 7 v0.4
I replaced some of the apps with MIUI apps such as
MIUI launcher
MIUI Music
MIUI Browser
I am not sure this ROM will work or flash so flash at your own risk
I am not responsible for any damage to your phone. Use at your own discretion
How to install
Must be on 2.3.4 NOT 2.3.5
Install bootstrap
Reboot into bootstrap recovery
Wipe data/cache
Flash this ROM

Im sorry but ill be the first one to chime in. You're putting up a ROM you didn't test yourself?

Well judging by how he has written the description, it should flash, if all he did was replace apks from miui to this rom. However a test would help peoples feelings lol

This should work almost flawless. I've played with all three apps he added on Molten and they worked well. Should not be an issue. Just wondering but did you ask Pepperm1nt if it was ok to use his rom? No big deal if you did Something to play with, thanks.

Preciate about the info
It's fine to use the base. The OP needs updated to give pix of the ROM and thanks for clarifying where the base is from. Let me know if you need anything...

+1 on the screen shots. Has anyone tried to flash this yet? I find it strange the person that made the rom didn't flash it before posting.

Am I the only one who was disappointed to realize that this is not an AOSP ROM?
I mean the title is misleading. I thought that this is the first fruition of 2nd init to make AOSP roms.
That's because gbp7 is not aosp based.....

was it just me or did it not let anyone else past the 'account' page? it wouldnt take me to my home to where i could set up my recovery so i had to sbf, so nice try OP, but i recommend you take this and base it off your own rom and get to familiar with the android system so you can take this and and make it your own

This is only GBphone rom + the MIUI launcher look alike and locker + other look alikes.
Sounds a little weird. No pics of screenshots or even tested? Based off someone elses rom without even asking first. Althoug he did give proper credit and did not try to act like it was his own. I appreciate all development for this phone but have to admit this is a first for me to see The OP even states not sure if this will work lol. Does not give you that warm fuzzy feeling and anxious to flash something new.

I dont mind doing a sbf. Did plenty when I was getting to eclipse 2.02 when I had root keeper on my phone I do not mean to bash anyone it is just weird the OP says he is not sure if it will work. Also the title I thought was a little misleading thought this was a MIUI rom.
Seems odd to complain about someone cooking up a new option for a phone with so little support. Regardless of the nature of that option, or what you experienced on another phones dev thread.
Thanks Jay, though I wont be using your work its nice to see people working with the x2. And incorporating miui apps / miui lookalike apps is a neat idea for miui fans who can't flash it due to a pesky locked bootloader.
And, I know none of you fine folks intended to come off as ungrateful or complainy (its my word don't steal it ). Its easy for things to be misinterpreted, between thinking about what you want to post, posting, and someone else reading your post with none of the vocal expression you had in mind.

The short answer seems to be no. There doesn't seem to be much activity, from what I've seen in this forum and others, on modding the X2. I wish I could figure out why since the DX is big on everyone's list now, as are other lesser performing phones in Verizon's stable. But, that's the way it is right now.

I am thinking about running the MIUI room that just recently came out on ROM manager, but I don't want to flash it if I cannot get back to stock and not receive the GB update when it comes.
Is there a reliable way to get back to stock yet? I have tried making a backup of my current state but every time that I do my X2 restarts...
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Yes you can get back to 100% stock.. There is a flashable SBF that does it.

I don't think MIUI is available for the X2. Check the X2 development forums. The SBF thread in particular. The answer yo your questions are there.
Sent from my DROID X2
I think the naming conventions of Droid's has caused a lot of confusion. Many things have been released for the Droid X and the Droid 2 at the same time, leading people to post about updates to the Droid X/2, which in fact is not the Droid X2.
I know MIUI is available, it is on ROM manager on my X2. And I found out about the imminent GB update on the X2 general forum.
So unless there are a lot more people than me "confused" by the names of Motorolas Phones, than I think it is probably true that GB will be here as a 2.3.4 build soon enough. I think that is why not much development has been done on this phone, why develop on Froyo when GB comes out so soon?

I haven't heard of any X2 owner using ROM Manager. A far as I can tell, to date, there are only derivatives of that chinese ROM floating around. I would research more before you flash whatever you see in ROM Manager. Unless you are skilled enough to un-brick your phone.
But hey... Let me know how that works out for you.

I will see what the DEV part of the forum says, but I will probably try to flash it tonight.
I will let you know how it goes.
Rom manager its probably seeing your phone as the atrix. You don't want to download a rom for the atrix, it will not work and you will be forced to sbf back to stock. There is currently only one rom fire the x2 and at least 3 others in the works.

Miui is most definitely not out for the x2.... but I guess it wouldn't hurt to try since you can easily unbrick

Yeah, it didn't work. Reflashed to stock. At least I tried I guess. I cannot wait until GB comes out on this thing. I wanna play with some roms and customize this thing.

Yeah I downloaded it from ROM manager and tried flashing it. It got about 2/3 of the way through the install and rebooted.
Had to go back to stock. A slightly annoying process, but i figured I may as well try and let the community know the results.

Nitro was stating that Oxide was kanged from his work.
Holy Shut The Front Door...I'm Sorry But Every Rom So Far Has Been Really Close To Each Other Besides Themes. I've Got All The Tweaks And I Made My Own Theme Based Off The Pre-Rooted, I Guess I Could Release It As My Rom. That's What I'm Getting At. I Hope They Can Work Through It And Brush It Off. Last Thing We Need Is Developers Here Not Getting Along.
Another reason I'm hoping CM7 comes out so we can start some AOSP builds.
Is anyone else having any problems with this app? If i change my battery icon, all my contacts are erased (this happened twice). Also, the sysctl tweaks are not holding. i kinda don't want to change anything else with this app. who knows what else it will erase on my phone. I have email jrummy but no response.....
What ROM?

sorry i should've stated....

You should be able to change all values. Everyone here uses rom toolbox and it works fine. It is fully supported for the x2. You are the only person with this problem.

Haha. I didn't see who it was who posted this before I started reading it and thought u were serious for a minute lol
For reals tho. It is getting frustrating EVEN for ME. To keep answering the question "how come rom toolbox messed up my x2"
OP. Only a small handful of options work for rom toolbox/rom manager for us.
I would stay away from them until you see some official statement from jrummy saying we have full support. Unless you like to practice sbf'ing tho

Not accurate. ROM manager is what you stay away from. ROM toolbox works great! Most all of it works except the cpu settings. OP - If you're running stock, do u even have the init.d hack installed in order for some of the values to stick?
Edit: I just changed my battery icon earlier and had no issues w/ losing contacts. I've flashed boot anis just fine, changed the font, no themes available yet but i think that well require you running liberty ROM, i believe.
Sent from my DROID X2 using xda premium
Ya I've heard the rom manager doesn't work for us but see all kinds of people using rom toolbox. Does anyone know which options in there I should stay away from. I wonder if liberty has anything to do with you not loosing your contacts for battery icon change. I changed mine twice and it did it both times.

(As in what he said would have been something you would say) lol
Viskey, it could be b/c you're running stock. For sysctl values to stick you will need to flash navens init.d hack or flash a ROM w/ init.d preinstalled. My experience w/ Toolbox is if it's not supported or needs a dependency then it tells you. At that pt, proceed w/ caution.

same happened with me!! all my contacts are erased i got x10 with GB 2.3.3
i have notified the dev. doesn't sound like it is getting fixed.
One more time. You cannot use Rom toolbox on a stock rom, unless you're rooted. If you're not rooted, it causes the contacts to be erased, and wallpaper will be reset, but that happends anyway. Also rom toolbox is for liberty Rom or any custom rom only.

I am rooted but thanks. And you can use rom toolbox with the stock rom but a lot of dev include it in their custom rom's because of the functionality it adds. No need to get hasty...

the.process to get that to work can be a very long process...I was looking at his log sheet he.posted last night and it is getting pretty long.

2.0 fixed y? It wouldn't flash so I just did it by hand. Everything installed in seems to be working. Even the power boost mod check that it was working. I would definitely upgrade when it comes out but this 1 seems to be working fine. Internet seems a lot more responsive.
